 AUTO SPRAY. Eight to ten .strok.-s of the 

 plunger in air chamber will compress enough 

 air to discharge the entire contents and make 

 a continuous spray for nine minutes. The 

 "Auto Spray" has been improved this season 

 by the addition of the ".4uto Pop," shown in 

 illustration. Briefly described, the "Auto Pop" 

 is an automatic valve, which is closed by the 

 air pressure used to operate the "Auto Spray." 

 In operation a lever is moved by simply clos- 

 ing the hand, thus opening the valve and al- 

 lowing an instantaneous discharge of spray. 

 By releasing the lever it closes itself automat- 

 ically; hence the spray Is in perfect control. 

 Price: Galvanized iron reservoir, $4.50; with 

 copper reservoir, $6.00; with .\uto Pop, $7.00; Brass Extei

 sides are made of the best spring steel; plant can be tilted 

 at any angle. Stand can be folded up so that fifteen will 

 go under the seat of a palm wagon and will only weigh 

 about one hundred pounds. Each, $2.00; per doz., $18.00. 



THE WHITNALL. The special merits of this stand may 



be briefly enumerated as follows: The three feet cause it 

 to stand firmly on a carpet or uneven floor. The upright 

 is of threei parts telescoped, being easily adjusted to vari- 

 ous heights, fastened by means of thumb screws which are 

 well made. The top flange will hold any ordinary pot up- 

 right, or by using the tour-pronged crotch attachment, a 

 pot can be placed on its side at two different angles; a 

 veirv useful contrivance for temporary decoration. 1 stand, 

 $1.50; 3 stands, $4.00; C stands, $7.50; 12 stands, $14.00.
